A powerful schema migration builder, that let's you write your SQL migrations in Rust.
barrel
makes writing migrations for different databases as easy as possible. It provides you with a common API over SQL, with certain features only provided for database specific implementations.
This way you can focus on your Rust code, and stop worrying about SQL.
While barrel
works on stable rust with most features, please note that some experimental features might require the nightly compiler.
The following example will help you get started
extern crate barrel;
use barrel::*;
use barrel::backend::Pg;
fn main() {
let mut m = Migration::new();
m.create_table("users", |t| {
t.add_column("name", Type::Text);
t.add_column("age", Type::Integer);
t.add_column("owns_plushy_sharks", Type::Boolean);
});
println!("{}", m.make::<Pg>());
}
If you have feedback regarding the API or things you would want barrel to do, please open an issue. And documentation PR's are always welcome π
Since diesel 1.2.0
it's possible to now use barrel
for migrations with diesel
. A guide with some more information on how to get started can be found here
Starting with v0.2.4
barrel
now has an unstable
feature flag which will hide features and breaking changes that are in-development at the time of a minor or patch release. You can use these features if you so desire, but be aware that their usage will change more rapidely between versions (even patches) and their usage will be badly documented.
